I made up a 2.5" external cased USB HDD that I can just plug into any comp for file transfers. otherwise us the Network wizard to set up wireless, but be prepared for Firewall and security set-up adjustments. Hi
It depends on how your Network (if you have one) is configured. If you have Internet connection with a Router that the two computers are connected to, then it is a matter of configuring the File Sharing. Make sure that the Software Firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall On, Vista/XP Native Firewall should be Off, and the active Firewall has to adjusted to your Network IP numbers on what is some time called the Trusted Zone (consult your 3rd Party Firewall instructions. General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq#trusted Vista File and Printer Sharing- http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb727037.aspx Windows XP File Sharing - http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;304040 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;304040 Printer Sharing XP - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/expert/honeycutt_july2.mspx Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/875357 Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922120 Jack (MVP-Networking). Otherwise explain what is that you have for Internet connection so we can have a starting point.
